Hi inaforty,

Yes I did see your pictures of the boat ramp. Looks like it will be a few more weeks 'till we can launch there...

My inlaws still still live there. Its the big obnoxious bright yellow house, it has my old sailboat in the driveway.

Inaforty - your very welcome. My motor - its a 2004 Yamaha TLRC - regular old 2 stroke. I got a great deal on it new in '05. My only complaint would be the 2 - 2.5 mpg but its been a good power plant.

I was down at Seaview Monday still looks the same!
I am getting a lip this year, I was thinking about Earls but now have decided to go to Seaport Marina. You will be able to look off the route 6 bridge and see my boat. Right across from the fish house were I sell my catch, going to be nice and easy this year!!

Been working on the woodwork. I had almost a full gallon of Minwax Helmsmen so I used that. I looked at the Sikkens products but at $109 a gallon I thought I would just put a few extra coats of the cheap stuff. Something to keep me busy with all the snow on the ground outside.

Looks terrific in a 40. Yeah, the Sikkens is expensive, but a quart goes a long way. I about cried last year when I knocked over an open, almost full quart in my garage. $40 down the drain and a permanent stain on the garage floor!

Nipper,
I might regret using the cheap stuff but the V 20 will probably get limited time on the water next summer. However I might be under estimating the allure of the V 20 as a fun day boat and leave the Rosborough tied up at the marina.

I think you will be fine with it. As is evident from the pix of your work, you prepped the wood very well which is the key. Hard to beat the look of a nicely prepped and varnished teak.
